The Botswana internet server named Dynabyte has gone out of business, shutting down earlier this week and affecting the communications abilities of at least one safari operator. Johan Calitz Safaris reports some hampered operations and communications in their Maun offices due to Dynabyte's collapse. Tharia Unwin from the operator's South Africa office says they are working on securing new e-mail addresses for all the staff in Maun through another internet service provider. In the meantime, all e-mails to anyone at Johan Calitz Safaris with an address using @dynabyte.bw should instead be addressed to Unwin at jachunt@mweb.co.za. She will forward the information to the appropriate person, through other, albeit slower, means of communication. She may also be reached by telephone at 27-56-2131633.

If you need to communicate with anyone in Botswana by e-mail, make sure you are not sending messages to a Dynabyte address, as they will not be delivered. Call or fax your contact for a new e-mail address.
